[quote=Anonymous]DC priority is to provide services for DC residents, which includes DC schools and afterschool programs serving DC kids. It's priority should not be to provide a sweetheart deal to a wealthy private school which enrolls many non-dc residents. Both DPR and Maret need to acknowledge and recognize that this "deal" is questionable. The fact that neither party has done so is shame but not surprising. People opposing this deal started with a petition and appealing to their local representatives, a good first step. However, if these steps don't lead to change, I don't see any problem with staging a protest or sit either at the homecoming game, at DPR and at Jelleff field. Not a lot of sympathy for Maret kids who might see protesters when I think about aftercare kids sitting in a basement everyday after school watching other kids play on field[/quote]
